supreme bars: cookie brownies

i've been a bit under the weather the past couple of days but i start to go a little stir crazy if i haven't baked anything for a few days. however, being on vicodin and soma limits what i am able to/should do in the kitchen. i decided tonight was the perfect night to make that betty crocker cookie brownie mix i bought a while back. it just looks so tasty!





i may have screwed up putting the cookie dough into the brownie batter but i don't care. maybe i was supposed to push it down in the batter instead of just plopping it on the top? i don't know, the directions weren't very clear but nothing burned and it all tastes great and that's really all i'm concerned about. 

this would be very easy to make from scratch as well, i imagine. just make your favorite brownie batter, spread it in a pan, and put in teaspoons of your favorite cookie dough. although, i think the cookie dough in this mix must be engineered in some way not to burn because it has to bake for a very long time and most cookies would be burnt to a crisp after being in the oven for 50 minutes.
